Ipad IOS5 Passcode issue

Hi everyone
i have just spent over an hour upgrading my ipad to ios5, on finishing it asked for my passcode which i had laready set
but would not recognise it
checked it twice and it was correct, but would not accept it on my ipad, it disbaled it for 15 minutes
i have now had to factory restore my ipad and am in the process of restoring from backup, whats going on, my iphone phone upgraded
perfectly, but my ipad ??
anyone have any ideas
thanks

The restrictions password will remain on the iPad Mini unless it is restored as a new device. If you need to remove the passcode on it, back it up and restore it with iTunes on the last computer it was synced with. To do this, connect the Mini to your computer, then right-click on the name of the Mini on the left side (if using iTunes 11 first go to View>Show Sidebar) and select Back Up. After backing it up, restore it as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414. At the end of the restore process you will be given the option to the iTunes backup you made earlier (see image below).

Ipad 3 passcode issues

I just bought an iPad 3. I set up a passcode, and was using it last night, but today it's not working and has locked me out. I haven't synced with a computer yet. What is my best course of action?

Brand New iPad Mini WiFi ISSUES

So I bought my iPad Mini 32gb a week ago and I've been using it eversince with my house's wifi. I recently updated it to iOS 6.1.3 and a couple of days after I started having WiFi issues. So I connect to my wifi and use it as usual, but after 5 minutes of using it the internet stops working eventhough it still shows the 3 bars of internet on the top left corner next to iPad. To fix this I have to turn off my iPad every time. I am trying to see if there is a solution or if I will have to send it to the apple repair center or change it for a new one for 40 bucks. I really need internet on it so please help. ( IT IS URGENT.)

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Some Photos Not Syncing to iPad 1, but issue is not the photos.

Some Photos Not Syncing: When syncing iPad1 64gb IOS 5.0.1 w/HP desktop, some but not all jpgs sync from a folder. (There is ample free space on the iPad.) The issue is not the photo files as I have verified that the jpg's are all compatible both through Adobe CS5 and by successfully getting the photos to sync to the iPad by making a copy of them and placing this duplicitous copy in a 2nd temporary folder, which then sync's all the jpg's to the iPad just fine. Still, it makes no sense why they won't all sync from the main photo folder.
[Folder structure is: Sync My Photos Folder; Subfolder 1 syncs all; Subfolder 2 syncs some; Subfolder 3 syncs all. But if I add a new Temp Subfolder 2a and copy non-syncing photos in it, then I am able to sync all teh photos.]
This is a very inconvenient situation, and it wastes space on my desktop harddrive as I have to have all the photos in the main folder--not the temp folder--to which they ar assinged. Has anyone else encountered this, and is there an explanation or solution for this issue?
Thanks.

My ipad was passcode protected and I did not change it but it will not let me in

My ipad was passcode protected and the code was not changed. I left the house for 15 minutes after using it and it will not let me in.

You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.

This will tell you how to restore

If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode

Ipad 2 wifi issues

Hi
I'm having problems with the wifi on my ipad 2, for the ipad to connect to the router i have to place it directly next to my router and it will connect with no problems but trying to connect to the router more then 1 metre away from the router the ipad doesn't find the router at all. This being my first ipad I just thought it was the way they are only for my brother to bring his ipad 1 to my house his ipad not only connects instantly to my router from anywhere in the house but also finds another 5 wifi connections. If I was to use my ipad upstairs in the room directly above the router it will stay connected for about 5 minutes and loses connection and I have to go down stairs and place the ipad2 next to the router for it to connect again where as my brother slept in the bedroom furthest away from the router and found the router and connected straight away and stays connected!
Is there something different in the way the ipad2 has been built or do you think I have a problem with my ipad?
I would appreciate your thoughts and comments.
Thanks
Gary

Accessing purchased video content via cloud on iPad iOS5

I can see all my music via cloud on iTunes on iPad iOS5 but can't see video. The iTunes app doesn't give me the option to switch to video on "purchased" tab. Anyone know a fix? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I meant TV shows. They aren't visible with the music. The support section on the Apple site says I should see the option to switch between video and music on the "purchased" tab on iTunes (iPad).

My ipad had passcode.wrong code was fed. the ipad is disabled now. what to do?

my ipad had passcode.wrong code was fed. the ipad is disabled now. what to do?

If the iPad is showing the red disabled screen due to too many incorrect passcode attempts then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

In the email you want to print, on the top right there is an arrow. Click that and an option should appear that says print. That should work. Have you already tried that?

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

IPad requires passcode wont go away and restart delay

Okay lets see if you guys can answer these 2 questions because I cant find anyway t fix it so just today I decided to upgrade to iOS 8.1.1 its ok just 2 problems 1 when it brought me to the passcode screen to put my passcode in its said iPad requires passcode after restart I thought this was just a one time message I put in my passcode as I had when I had iOS 7 and well heres problem 2 I restarted my iPad MINI iPad mini I havent mentioned that yet and well you know that circled thing that appears in everything like the loading thing well it didnt appear this time it took about 8 second for it to appear (this never happened) and it shut down when I started it back up it started normally and when I got to the passcode screen it said the same message and wouldnt go away these 2 problems happened every single time i turned off and on my iPad please help!!

how did you turn off your iPad? Did you just hold the power button until seeing the Slide to Power Off? If thats what you did try a reset instead. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
